| Riepilogo: | There are a number of reasons to think that Mark used, adapted, and sought to refute elements of the collection of sayings attributed to Jesus, called the Gospel of Thomas, particularly in Mk 1-8 and 11-12. In Mark's central section principal points from his source are thoroughly revised or represented by paradistic refutations of them. The variability of the Thomasine textual tradition does not invalidate the use of Thomas as an essentially first-century text, but it does require some caution. Consideration of the sheer number of Thomas sayings used by Mark, and the evident Markan adaptation of specifically Thomasine elements, are arguments against the alternative thesis, that both drew sayings from the unknown, indefinable source, the so-called oral tradition. Knowledge of Mark may increase considerably if it is recognised that we may have at hand a late written version of one of the texts he used, the Gospel of Thomas. |
